Chapter 366 Second Cycle (XI)
Knowing is not enough.
The bet is to find it.
Yun Zhao couldn't say it out loud, because it might hear him and then hide in an even more unseen place.
At this moment.
A phoenix engulfed in flames circled in the air and flew toward them.
The sentries got out of the vehicle and waited.
Tao Haohao ran over and was flattered by the scene, not expecting so many people to come and greet him.
Xie Tu glanced at him, making sure he was alright, and said, "Come to the meeting."
Tao Haohao: "..." It turns out he was just imagining things.
The car window was open.
Jing Yao and the other two sat in the car, their lips pressed tightly together, watching them drive away.
Ren Xin held Chen Xi's hand tightly, remaining silent the entire time. The loss of her parents forced a seven-year-old girl to grow up prematurely.
The group hadn't gone far; they stopped after walking a hundred meters along the riverbank.
Taking this opportunity, Yun Zhao cleansed the dark matter from the body of Tao Haohao's brown bear.
Apart from Xie Tu, the other teammates were not severely affected by the corruption.
There's no time to do in-depth interventions for each case right now.
After purifying the dark matter from the spiritual bodies, the little guys felt better, and the sentinels also felt much better.
The fire phoenix hovered nearby, then suddenly shrank to the size of a palm, landing on Xie Tu's shoulder.
It felt more relaxed than ever before today, but it also felt like something was off, though it couldn't figure out why with its little brain.
Fire Phoenix searched around and found that Little Bluebird had not come out, so she looked at Yun Zhao expectantly.
Yun Zhao was busy calming the brown bear down, so he naturally didn't see it.
Everyone assemble.
Xie Tu and Fu Mo discussed splitting up.
"Three vehicles are too conspicuous and could easily be blocked by zombies, wasting time."
Xie Tu took out paper and pen from his backpack and drew the location of the military base. "The supply point is here. We will split into four groups to operate. If we run out of ammunition or encounter special circumstances, we will retreat to the military base and finally rendezvous there."
Fu Yu nodded and volunteered, "Leave the coastal areas to us."
The Fuheng Squad has three marine spirits that can search the sea area.
The gatekeeper is not a real person after all; he can remain free and at ease in his own domain, even underwater.
but……
Some things need to be made clear first.
"Our team originally came in to obtain supplies, but now the situation has changed, and finding the gatekeeper is the most important thing."
Fu Heng proposed a condition: "The reward for killing the gatekeeper afterwards will be split in half, and intelligence will be shared. Is that alright?"
The gatekeeper knew the truth about the disaster.
With this news alone, supplies and such are no longer important.
She would naturally do everything in her power to find clues and locate the gatekeeper.
But I'm worried that Team Zero might not agree to share the information with them.
Make sure to clarify your words before taking action.
Xie Tu: "Of course."
The 'Salvation Plan' was jointly launched by the four major bases, and no one can remain unaffected.
Even if Fu Mou and the others don't come in, Dawn Base will still notify them once they receive the news and leave.
Sharing in advance simply helps her team earn an extra point reward.
With only 62 hours left, time is of the essence.
The two team leaders each divided their members into groups.
On Team Zero's side, Xie Tu, Yun Zhao, and Qi Ling, along with the three survivors, were responsible for the western area of the city.
Tao Haohao, Duan Xi, Rabbit, and Song Liang formed a group and headed north.
On Fu Yu's side, she and Zhuo Yu were in charge of the eastern coastal area.
Lin Yu, Zhao Xinlei, and another male sentry, Fan Li, headed south.
Objective: Search for the goalkeeper and Zero Team's armored vehicles!
*
All three vehicles that arrived were damaged to varying degrees.
The other three teams quickly left to find new vehicles.
In the blink of an eye, only Xie Tu, Yun Zhao, and Qi Ling remained on the riverbank.
Yun Zhao beckoned to the three people in the car over there, "Come on over, get in this car."
Of the three vehicles, only their seven-seater minivan sustained the least damage.
Upon hearing this, Jing Yao opened the car door and came over first.
Chen Xi followed with Xiao Renxin by the hand.
Xie Tu was in charge of driving, Yun Zhao sat in the passenger seat, and Qi Ling sat next to them in the back.
Since they met, Jingyao and Chen Xi have remained silent and haven't said a word.
It's also possible that they just haven't found the opportunity yet.
From their perspective, the actions of Team Zero were incomprehensible.
After disappearing for a year, they suddenly and inexplicably returned to the city. The group looked the same as before, but a new team of superhumans appeared out of nowhere.
Xie Tu had already started the vehicle and was heading west.
Fire Phoenix led the way.
The atmosphere inside the car was oppressive.
While sitting in a car discussing issues, it was inevitable that Jing Yao and the others would overhear some things they shouldn't have heard.
"Don't you have any questions?" Yun Zhao asked, speaking up first.
Jing Yao looked out the window and remained silent for a moment. "There are too many questions. I don't know where to begin."
For example, what did they encounter, where did the supplies on that ship go, and who were the other group of superhumans?
Can their return truly end this nightmare?
With so many questions, it's hard to know where to begin.
Yun Zhao said softly, “But I have a problem. We are looking for someone who was also a survivor of the safe base. It was the base that trapped us, which is why we disappeared for so long.”
Chen Xi was stunned, "How could this be..."
The survivors at the base are all ordinary people. Who has the ability to trap seven superhumans?
The car drove off the street and headed west.
The commotion attracted several mutated zombies.
Yun Zhao flicked his fingertips, and a bluish-green fluorescent light chased after several dark figures. "It can't be explained in a few words, but I'm telling you the truth. After we left, you should know who moved our ammunition and vehicles."
Chen Xi lowered her head and looked at Ren Xin in her arms.
She recalled the days they spent together, the hopeful and busy life in the early days of establishing the base, and ultimately chose to believe her.
"It's the group from Peach Blossom Island."
Chen Xi replied in a low voice, "When they went to the port to check, they drove off with your car and took the ammunition."
The armored vehicle has weapon racks on both sides inside, with various firearms mounted on them, and it also has an automatic firing device inside.
With that vehicle and the ammunition, the others had a chance to survive.
So no one stopped it at the time.
But later results proved that the same weapons and vehicles could have completely different effects in the hands of different people.
Armored vehicles, which are invincible in the hands of superhumans, are only slightly more powerful than ordinary vehicles in their hands.
"On the day of the breakout, even that car couldn't stop the mutated zombies from attacking. Everyone following behind the car perished; some died, and some fled..."
In just a few words, Chen Xi recounted the horrific situation at the time.
Her classmates are all dead, and Ren Xin's parents are dead too...
Chen Xi choked up and said, "Jing Yao protected me and Xiao Renxin. We had no other choice but to run back and eventually escaped into Ocean Park."
That was the place she knew best, the heavy iron gates inside the employee passageway.
The air was thick with the smell of dead marine life, which masked the presence of the living on their bodies.
The mutated zombies couldn't find them.
It is the best hiding place.
At that time, Jingyao and his companions went out to work with the superhumans every day. The six of them received a lot of supplies and hid them nearby.
Jingyao risked going out to move the things inside, fixed the water circulation system, and the three of them settled down inside the Ocean Park.
This stay lasted for almost a year.
Qi Ling felt extremely distressed upon hearing this.
For a creature to retain its sanity in a contaminated area is destined to be a tragedy.
Team Zero couldn't save them, and nobody could...
Qi Ling turned her head to look out the window, not daring to look at the three people sitting behind her.
